Ms. Belew is a poet and songwriter whose art forms attempt to write from the perspective of many groups. Please check out some of her hard hitting lyrics.

Although she always writes from a first person perspective whether it be noval, short story, poem, or song lyric, she has not experienced everything about which she writes. Much of her writing is created from the experiences of others who consistently feed her creative efforts. Valerie Belew lives south of metro Atlanta with Sambo, Brandi, Ginger, Fluffy and Michael. She loves feedback, so feel free to email her through this site with any questions, clarifications or comments about her work.
